Learn more about the many benefits of going to rehab and the various Raleigh drug rehab options here.
Drug rehab is an intervention aimed at helping people quit drugs. This is done through the use of different therapies, experiences, and medication. A well-rounded drug rehab program will focus on healing the whole person, not just treating the symptoms of addiction.
These programs often require a stay at a rehab facility, but there are outpatient options as well. Rehab also provides support through detox and withdrawal–which is often necessary to ensure the patient’s safety. Finding a Raleigh drug rehab program is important to overcome your addiction.

It can be hard to tell if you or someone that you know needs rehab. It is estimated that 15.1 million adults in the U.S. need drug rehab. However, drug addiction can be hard to spot if you don’t know the signs. Some signs that someone may need treatment include:1
The effects of drug addiction are far-reaching and can be devastating. Addiction damages your relationships with both yourself and others. It also leads to an increase in risky behaviors that can have financial, legal, and fatal consequences. For example, individuals with an active addiction might find themselves breaking the law or doing things they normally wouldn’t do to feed their addiction.2
Addiction also has devastating effects on the body and mind. For those with underlying mental health conditions, addiction can make them worse. It can also cause new problems to develop. Drug use worsens mental health conditions and can make them significantly more severe. Drug use is also linked to poor dental health, heart troubles, liver problems, kidney issues, and neurological changes.
Drug rehabilitation has the power to improve the overall quality of your life. Rehab focuses on healing the whole person and provides the tools needed to live a happy, sober life. During rehab, you will build healthy habits to support you in your daily life.
Rehab also has the potential to save a person’s life. As of 2020, it is estimated that nine North Carolinians die from a drug overdose daily. Rehab can give you the tools to prevent relapse and fatal overdose.3
Detox is usually the second step in rehab. Detox is the way our bodies remove toxins that have built up from drug use. The detoxification process is typically uncomfortable, and symptoms vary greatly. These symptoms are difficult to manage at home and can be potentially dangerous.
Detoxing through a rehab program allows for your symptoms to be managed by a medical professional. A rehab detox also reduces the risk of complications during detox. Many people qualify for medication-assisted treatment (MAT) which greatly reduces the severity of detox symptoms.
Once the initial detox is over, the next step is rehabilitative treatment. Treatment looks different for everyone, but there are some common themes seen in most plans. Rehabilitation can take place in an inpatient, residential, or outpatient setting. Rehabilitation is focused on helping you uncover your underlying reasons for addiction and giving you the tools to conquer it.
Advaita Integrated Medicine offers an intensive outpatient program, psychiatric interventions, medication-assisted treatment, and integrative wellness coaching, and more.
Addiction commonly occurs along with other mental health problems. Often those who are struggling with addiction are trying to self-medicate an underlying condition. Psychiatric treatment addresses these underlying issues, helping you heal. At AIM, our team of compassionate therapists are here to develop a treatment program that’s right for you.
At AIM Raleigh drug rehab, we offer medication-assisted treatment to help you feel better sooner. Medication-assisted treatment is a highly effective treatment option for those struggling with an opioid, prescription painkiller, or alcohol addiction. This type of treatment greatly reduces cravings and symptoms of withdrawal to make you more comfortable through the detox process.
Our integrative wellness coaching program will provide you with the unwavering support you need to achieve and maintain sobriety. While wellness coaching is different than traditional therapy, it has many benefits. Integrative coaching can boost your self-esteem, help you take control of your life, and learn new ways to cope with challenges.
